maybe he has Asperger's :p
Isn't that a form of Autism?
Yeah, one of its main traits is having extremely narrow interests.
I have aspergers but i have a fairly broad spectrum of interests besides metal. Aspergers is a fairly light form of autism and it has many varying degrees of effects that comes with this diagnosis. Some people with aspergers have very narrow interests while someone like me likes many different things. I really varies from case to case. i have aspergers syndrome and i am not afraid of admitting it. People say to me after i told them that i have aspergers "but you look so normal!!" that's because you cannot really tell what i got unless i tell you so. If you have downs syndrome, it's really easy to tell but people with aspergers usally look like normal people, sorry for the long rant btw...hehe
How does a person know he has Asperger's? Does he need to go through any medical check up, scans etc? How do you get diagnosed with it?[/quote)
No, only when you recieve the diagnosis and that's after you have scanned for about an hour. You must see a specialist in neuropsychcology (spelling?) which will give you the diagnosis. Some people with Aspergers need to take medication, but not me thankfully.
Edit: Sorry, i fucked that quote up, but you get my message.
